What is a Time Bank?

A time bank is a way for local people to come together and help each other. Participants 'deposit' their time in the bank by giving practicable help and support and are able to 'withdraw' their time when they need something done themselves. Everyone's time is worth the same and a broker links people up and keeps records. People help each other with everything from making phone calls, to sharing meals and giving lifts to the shops.

We want to live in places where we know our neighbours and can call on them when we need help. Money can't buy that trust - but time banks can provide support when we need it and at the same time help us get to know our neighbours.

We all have skills and talents but a lot of these are wasted. Time banks are one way if using what you have to help someone else. And no-one is excluded - time banks recognise that we need every one's contribution to build healthy, happy neighbourhoods.

Time banks can help provide a whole range of community based services - everything from home visits to older people, to security patrols and practical DIY schemes.

There are a growing number of inspiring schemes already running in London & elsewhere in Britain. For instance Southwark Hourbank, Rushey Green in South East London & in Gloucestershire Fairshares.
